Here you go!

In the mean time I have been unemployed for 20 months and I have 15 years of experience. Nobody is getting hired right now. It’s nuts.

And yet it’s still 2 months of median income in the US.

AMD’s version is called Simultaneous Multithreading (SMT). But just about everyone, even most motherboard firmware that I have seen, calls it hyperthreading still.

For the record, upward mobility is exactly what I was promised when I took out tens of thousands of dollars in student loans to get a bachelors degree. I’m not exaggerating, they had a fucking PowerPoint…

Also I sure appreciate doing the exact same thing the previous three generations did, getting a different result, and then being called a delusional loser for it, especially by somebody who was almost certainly handed their chance in life on a platter.

By the time I stopped working there they were using an app that had an E2E encrypted connection to the medical records system so they could actually even get test results and such as texts. The instances I was describing happened in the early days of iMessage right as we were starting the upgrade of the pager system. Most of the problem doctors had recently finished residencies or internships at hospitals that had already upgraded.

I used to work at a hospital and I have experience with doctors who firmly believe that their comfort and convenience tops HIPAA and anything else. I had to file several violations for doctors who wouldn’t stop using SMS instead of their pagers. Every time their excuse was “I don’t like the pager, it’s old.”There is a nonzero chance that this doctor didn’t even continue thinking about the consequences beyond “but I need to have the latest thing”.

Lots of good acts in these threads, I haven’t seen them mentioned so I will throw out Trout Fishing in America.

In TNG’s first episode they show the military types during the Q court scenes snorting some ‘drug’.

Make sure you look at the sign though, around here sometimes other people put out buckets than the Salvation Army.

Every modem that also has a phone line has a battery in it by law in the US. This is so the phone line will stay up in a power outage. So they’re actually more suburban people than you would think who’ve got the whole package of cable, phone, and Internet who’s WiFi will stay on for several hours after the power goes out.

Nounwine I get but snorting a verb? Snorting a walk? Snorting a stab??? I don’t get it, what am I missing?

Edit: Thank you! I get it now, though I’m not sure it’s as prevalent as nounwine.

All the best stuff was wood paneled!

I get what you are saying and I lived through HP mania too, but I didn’t ask why Harry Potter tattoos were a thing, I asked by the deathly hallows tattoo was so popular. I only know like one person who has a Harry Potter tattoo that isn’t the triangle (it’s a snitch).

I’ve been unemployed for over a year and a half… if I got a job offer from them I am not sure I could turn it down.

It’s small if you get it small, I know people who didn’t. Personally I feel like it looks like an on/off symbol.

I remember when we upgraded to cable and I had to get a box for the TV in my room that only had the VHF/UHF input.

Looked like this:

Given the number of people I know personally who got Deathly Hallows triangle tattoos I have absolutely no problem believing this. Seriously why was that tattoo so popular?

They are all based on the same designs from like the 40s.
